Gummi Bear

Gummi Bear is approximately 16 weeks old in these pictures taken March 20, 2008. She is a doll who likes to play on your lap. Gummi Bear is always looking for new toys to play with.

Gummi Bear and her siblings, Tooti Frutti, Tootsie Roll, Jolly Rancher, and Jelly Belly, were taken in by LP when a lady neighbor called stating that she was concerned about their owner, their mom, and them. The owner was a man on disability whose living conditions were not the best. He loved the dogs but could barely afford food for himself. The lady said that she would pay to have the mother spayed and wanted to know if we could help. Luckily we had a foster home open for the pups to go so we took them in.

UPDATE - March 20, 2008:
From the foster parents.
Gummi Bear is a sweet girl. She reminds me of a big fuzzy teddy bear. She is quite, doesn't bark a lot, loves to play with all the other puppies, and is generally a happy girl. She still needs practice with housebreaking but she is smart and should get it quickly. She is such a joy to have around.

We believe the puppies are a basic Heinz 57 type dog for our area. We see Shepard, Corgi, Elkhound, Keeshond, and the ears of a Shar Pei. Their mom was a medium sized long hair girl.

All of the puppies are in a foster home, NOT AT THE SHELTER. A completed and processed application is required before an appointment will be made to see them. We appreciate your understanding as the foster parents and other shelter volunteers work and having a processed application saves time for everyone.
